Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) Review
The world of “simulation” is a fascinating section of the gaming industry. These games often consist of repetitive and banal activities, which are wrapped in fancy packaging, and sold by the millions around the globe.

The Uncontrollable Fear of Nothing in Particular
Last Week The moment I heard my parents had died was, without question, the worst moment of my life. I was home alone, washing the dishes, when there was a knock at the door. Behind the door was a creature. It spoke softly, and directly. “I’m sorry to have to tell you this, but your…
